Chocolate Banana Rum Upside Down Cake Recipe

Here is a cake I experimented with for my future daughter in law Jennifer Carmen's birthday today. This chocolate cake is infused with a banana caramelized topping that just melts in your mouth and has a hint of rum flavor. I hope she likes it, I wanted to share her special day with all of you.We have been so blessed this year with the birth of our grandson Antonio who is 6 months old right now and whose dad is ( my son ) +Curt Iffert you may know fromCurt's Delectables Blog .

Jennifer got a beautiful special present this week, her mom flew in from Kentucky to visit for her birthday week and to see Antonio for the first time. These were such precious moments between mother and daughter, it brought tears to my eyes. So we have a double celebration going on here and the bigger party with whole family coming up this Sunday. Antonio is getting lots of love from his reunion with his grandmother Sandy Carmen. We are all so thrilled to have them all together.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNI!!!
